Jogging update

All is going well, I have just completed the next jog/walk stage, three repetitions of the following:

Stretch and warm up walk 5 mins
Jog/walk: 6 min jog, 1 min walk, 5 min jog, 1 min walk, 6 min jog, 1 min walk, 5 min jog, 1 min walk
Cool down walk 9 mins (forgot to stretch AGAIN)

This went really well, I didn't have any problems at all. I had slight stitch in the cool down walk the first time I did this. I managed to go a little faster each time - and in fact today my final walk was only 7-8 mins as I had cut that off my time. I don't think I'll extend my route particularly though yet, I'll see how the next stage goes. In the 40 minutes I'm only covering about 4.2k at the moment - and that currently includes 22 minutes of running and the rest walking.

On Wednesday I shall do the first run of the next stage which is as follows:

Stretch and warm up walk 5 mins
Jog/walk: (8 min jog + 1 min walk) x 3
Cool down walk 8 mins, and stretch

That looks quite scary compared to what I did today, but its only an extra two minutes of running, so we'll see how it goes.
